Abstract
The process for manufacturing a plasma display panel, wherein two glass substrates are sealed together using a sealing material of epoxy or polyvinyl butyrate. The sealed structure provides a space between the substrates to contain a discharge gas. The choice of an epoxy or polyvinyl butyrate sealing material allows for relatively low processing temperatures in order to cure the sealing material. This relatively low processing temperature, of between 200° C. and 300° C., lowers the risk of cracking or microcracking of intermediate layers, which are formed on the surfaces of the substrates.
